Ruby Red Toys Amani

Ruby Red Toys Amani, a limited edition 14-1/2-inch all-vinyl doll, has 9 points of articulation.

I almost missed getting Amani by Ruby Red Toys because I wasn't feeling her matchless clothes. The white blouse, multicolored sequined vest, and three-tiered, flared gray skirt appeared thrown together and too reminiscent of McKenzie Fenella Layla's ensemble, which prevented me from purchasing the Lars doll, and I have no regrets about that decision. For this reason, I passed on preordering Amani. 

After seeing online pictures of other collectors' dolls and basking in Amani's striking beauty, I ordered one of the last six from FAO Schwarz in June. By that time, the doll was almost sold out at Ruby Red Toys and did sell out a day or so after my FAO order. 

I took 65 photos of Amani and edited down to 22. The photos are a visual depiction of this gorgeous, ebony-complexioned 14-1/2-inch doll. Some of the photos were used in an unboxing video, which can be viewed at the link.

The Unboxing Video

As the video indicates, Amani has a certificate of authenticity.  Made in a limited edition of 300 dolls, my doll is number 267. 

The Photos 

Packaged items: Certificate of authenticity, care instructions, tissue-wrapped clothes, jewelry case, socks and sandals

Three pairs of earrings were inside the jewelry case.

Amani's unpackaged items: a white blouse, a sequined vest, two skirts, black sandals, and toeless socks

Amani arrived wearing white panties.

What a lovely face! She wears the silicone wig band and still has the plastic protectors in her ear piercings.

The short curly wig is very becoming.

Amani wears the white blouse and sequined vest with the multicolored silk skirt and sandals (without socks).

The gray three-tiered, flared skirt and toeless sandals are worn with the white blouse and sequined vest.

Despite the matchless clothes, Amani is breathtaking (and she can always be redressed)!
